Health and safety information
• Use only Samsung-approved batteries,
and recharge your battery only with
Samsung-approved chargers. Disconnect
the charger from the power source when
it is not in use. Do not leave the battery
connected to a charger for more than a
week, since overcharging may shorten
its life.
• Extreme temperatures will affect the
charging capacity of your battery: it may
require cooling or warming first.
• Do not leave the battery in hot or cold
places because the capacity and lifetime
of the battery will be reduced. Try to
keep the battery at room temperature. A
phone with a hot or cold battery may not
work temporarily, even when the battery
is fully charged. Li-ion batteries are
particularly affected by temperatures
below 0°C (32°F).
• Do not short-circuit the battery.
Accidental short-circuiting can occur
when a metallic object like a coin, clip or
pen causes a direct connection between
the + and – terminals of the battery
(metal strips on the battery). For
example, do not carry a spare battery in
a pocket or bag where the battery may
contact metal objects. Short-circuiting
the terminals may damage the battery or
the object causing the short-circuiting.
• Dispose of used batteries in accordance
with local regulations. Always recycle. Do
not dispose of batteries in a fire.
Road safety
Your wireless phone gives you the powerful
ability to communicate by voice, almost
anywhere, anytime. But an important
responsibility accompanies the benefits of
wireless phones, one that every user must
uphold.
